Experience:
I began my teaching career in August 2012, as the band director at Georgia Washington Middle School in Montgomery. I taught middle school band (grades 6-8) for a year and was then fortunate to receive the job here at Daniel Pratt Elementary School. I began teaching at DPES in August of 2013 and I've been here ever since. This is my 12th year here at Daniel Pratt and I'm looking forward to what's in store!
Bio:
I was born and raised here in Prattville and was actually a part of the first 2nd grade class to walk in the doors here at Daniel Pratt when the school opened. I started band in 7th grade at Prattville Junior High and my interest in music only grew from there. After participating in the marching band at Prattville High School, I went on to perform with the Auburn University Marching and Symphonic Bands. War Eagle! I've been able to travel all over the country by participating in the bands at PHS and Auburn University
I'm fortunate to be able to teach at the same school I grew up in and with my mom, a 3rd grade math teacher here. I love deep sea fishing with my dad, spending time with my brother, Elijah, sister, Hannah, and my precious nephew, Eli. I also enjoy taking my dog, Sadie, to the dog park!
